Somali pirates have released a Togo-flagged vessel that was seized last week, the World Food Programme said Monday.
Pirates on four skiffs seized the 5,000-ton MV Sea Horse on Tuesday. "We hear from the operators of the ship that it was released on Friday," said Peter Smerdon, spokesman for the World Food Program in Nairobi. The ship was not under U.N. charter at the time of the hijacking. But it was on its way to Mumbai, India, to inaugurate a new route for the organization to deliver food from India to Mogadishu, Somalia, Smerdon said. Piracy is rampant in the Gulf of Aden off the coasts of Somalia and Kenya with vessels seized regularly and often released only after a large ransom is paid. Despite the presence of foreign navies off the coast of Somalia, securing the 1.7 million square-kilometer (1.1 million square miles) region has proved difficult. At any given time, a number of nations could be in the region to protect the seas. Though the countries try to coordinate efforts, there are limits to the extent of information they share. On Sunday NATO said it had foiled a weekend pirate attack on a Norwegian tanker. Pirates attempted to capture the MV Front Ardennes at 6 p.m. Saturday and were apprehended seven hours later, Commander Chris Davies told CNN. A NATO-supported Canadian navy ship, the HMCS Winnipeg, was returning from escorting a World Food Program vessel in the gulf when it saw the Norwegian ship under attack, Davies said. A British Royal Fleet Auxiliary vessel, the Wave Knight, was also in the area. On Saturday, Dutch naval forces also captured seven pirates and freed 20 captive fishermen after tracking the pirates to their "mother ship" in the western Gulf of Aden. The rescue came as pirates were capturing another vessel — a Belgian ship — off the coast of the Seychelles islands.

Early Book Release Due to High Demand
Due to a growing waiting list of people wanting a copy of Saving Our Oceans, we officially released the book May 3, instead of May 15. Buyers want to call in orders…no one seems to trust email for personal information anymore. Calling is just fine – when someone's here to take the order.
Releasing Saving Our Oceans early is not a problem. In fact, we're very happy to do so. We were mainly holding back because we've been waiting on two people to finish their reviews before we turned the book loose.
Saving Our Oceans should be available on Amazon very shortly. A signed copy can also be ordered from us directly now as we finally received several boxes of books. And we're offering Free Shipping to continental U.S. addresses on these early orders.
MORE NEWS: WHO GETS THE MONEY
We have officially selected two of the three 501c3 recipients for the profits earned by Saving Our Oceans.
Our first recipient is the Save Our Wild Salmon Coalition, a group working to save wild salmon runs for the sake of the salmon, but also for the sake of the Southern Resident Pod of orcas who dine on Chinook salmon almost exclusively. Many orcas in the pod are starving to death due to lack of salmon (chinook). Because of the efforts and hard work of this group, headed by Joseph Bogaard, talks and studies are now underway to explore the possibility of breaching the four Lower Snake River Dams which would allow salmon to reach their spawning grounds…and for the smolt to return to sea without being churned up in turbines. Dam removal would also help lower river water temperature. In addition, for the first time, Washington State and British Columbia will curtail commercial and sport salmon fishing in August. Maybe July too. (Gotta check that out.)
Our second recipient is the Whale Museum in Friday Harbor, Washington. The museum is visited by literally thousands of people a year. We feel very strongly that the museum's work toward educating people about the Southern Resident Pod and whales in general is of the utmost importance. Because of the organization's outstanding display of all things "whale" and their excellent educational programs, the museum was chosen to also be a recipient of the net proceeds from Saving Our Oceans.
We have three contenders for third recipient – extremely tough decision! There are many excellent organizations working for cleaner oceans and to save the ocean's inhabitants. It's difficult to single out so few when so many are worthy.
However, back to the real world…we do have extensive costs in getting Saving Our Oceans into print. These costs will have to be covered by the sale of books I personally have written since the proceeds from Saving Our Oceans are dedicated. My titles are Life Was a Cabaret: A Tale of Two Fools, a Boat, and a Big-a** Ocean (sailing memoir); The Old Folks in the Boat (rowing); and the Ben Thomas Trilogy: Northern Escape (award-winning suspense); Northern Conspiracy (Mystery); and Death in the Desert (International Thriller).
MORE NEWS! Jere D. James, our western author, volunteered to forfeit royalties until the cost of Saving Our Oceans is covered! Jere is the author of the popular 7-book, Jake Silver Adventures series. Jere's books are locked and loaded with bloody mayhem and serious adventure. So, how about that for some engaging reading this summer?

Yarraville Sinking Village
September 12, 2014 Architecture, Industrial history, pollution, Yarravillearsenic, building, compensation, quarry, sinking village, Yarravillenickgadd
Walking north towards Yarraville shopping centre, we pass Coles supermarket and reach a row of small houses, behind which is a small park with a new playground. The is the site of the Sinking Village.
In 1973, on this block, 40 units were built. Within a few weeks, damage to them became obvious.
The units had been built on top of one of the old quarries – there were many around this part of the city, due to its abundant bluestone – which had been filled in with sludge from a sugar factory. When torrential rains washed away what remained of the foundations, the units became uninhabitable. The buildings were sinking into the quarry.
From The Age, 5 September 1973
The remains of the 'village' stood for several years before finally being demolished, and the land has been vacant ever since. In the building departments of some TAFE colleges, the Yarraville Sinking Village is still taught as a case study of what can go wrong.
It took several years, but the residents eventually won $28,000 compensation each, from the builder, the council, and the Victorian Government. But the story still boggles the mind. How was it that in a matter of a few decades, such a crucial piece of knowledge – there's a big hole there, full of sludge – could simply be forgotten?
These days there's a strip of houses along the eastern edge of the site, just outside the perimeter of the hole. The rest was used as a car park for years, for the footy oval over Williamstown Road. Perhaps the members of the Yarraville Mouth Organ Band, a great local institution, parked there too. (I don't know that for sure, but I wanted to mention the band.)
Now, after many years of indecision, the Sinking Village site has been grassed over and turned into a mini park.
It's not the only place around here with subterranean secrets. Just across the road, Coles supermarket is built on the site of the old Leggo's chemical works, which closed in the 1950s. In its heyday, Leggo's proudly spruiked itself as "the largest producer of arsenic in the Southern hemisphere". After it closed down, massive quantities of toxic chemicals were left in the ground, leading to the place being known as 'the arsenic site'. Take a look at the trees in the car park: they are planted in tubs, not in the ground.

Thanks – should be OK now.
If you looks closely at the Coles supermarket, you will note it is a long way above the surrounding streets – the entire site was covered in compacted clay, with the EPA having to sign off on the remediation scheme:

I've participated in Art Conspiracy every single year since the beginning, plus I was one of feature artists for Art Con's SEED 2008. I'm rather proud of that.
This event represents what I love most about Dallas. So much earnestness goes into making Art Con work. There's none of that pretentious detachment. It's always a little rough around the edges, but everyone believes in the art, the community, and their ability to make the world a little better. Hard not to sense a connection between the success of Art Con and all subsequent endeavours such as La Reunion TX and Bike Friendly Oak Cliff. There's an unyielding optimism in the ability to remake our city into the kind of place where we'd want to live. It's contagious.
My piece this year will be similar to the previous two years (here and here). Except this year, I'm including a graphic element along the top 1/3. And instead of a comic script, I'm going with some unpublished prose. Yes, prose.


I will bet there is something bugging you about how project execution is going in your group; in fact it's probably been an issue for quite a while now. A solution has not been implemented, although you would welcome the day the problem was gone. There's been plenty of candid discussion about this issue - in meetings, over lunch, at happy hour and quick hallway chats.
At what point does an organization decide that the time is right to solve a systemic issue with new product execution? This will only occur at the point where the perception of the benefit in making a change is considerably greater than keeping things as they are. Perception of cost vs. benefit is the vital decision factor required to tip the scale in favor of investing in a solution. This is true for any product development barrier - tools, flows, organizational structure, processes or procedures.
Building momentum towards a decision to take substantial action against an ongoing barrier is as simple as turning the problem into one of financial impact. If the cost of ignoring a known product development obstacle is presented in terms of lost revenue opportunity, a stronger case for action will result. Link the need for eliminating a known execution difficulty to the impact on money (sooner or more) and gain the support required for a decision to invest in a solution.
A justification built around touchy feely advantages such as efficiency or productivity is weak, and reaching a decision to proceed will be like pushing a rope. The reality is that problems in need of solutions can drag on for years without a well-constructed financial benefit rationale. If there is an obstacle that has been a long-term issue, consider that the case for fixing it may not have been presented with the proper business impact.
How long can problem discussions continue before a decision to take action towards a solution becomes obvious? Without financial impact as motivation, it could be forever. If a monetary case isn't built in support of action for resolving a new product delivery concern, then the perception that it's not a bona fide business problem will continue. The solution, no matter how sound, will likely remain buried for a long time.

In a war, the alliances you make can be the difference between victory and defeat. To that end Phalanx has moved aggressively to ally with partners who will help us as much as we help them. Whether it's working with a partners customers transparently, or working to position a partner in a way that benefits us all, good strategy is finding good comrades in arms. Today we announce our newest partnership with Netrepid, a leading business class IT solutions provider in the state of PA. Phalanx team met Netrepid CEO Sam Coyle at a startup event and got to see him assist many newly forming companies that day. It made complete sense to discuss utilizing Netrepid services for our customers and assisting them in work with theirs. To date, we are excited to be assisting Netrepid with design services for their own marketing and positioning efforts moving forward.
Netrepid was founded in 2004 in Central Pennsylvania primarily as a wireless networking and tower construction company. Netrepid is a privately held C corporation. The headquarters office is located in Enola, PA. The Netrepid owned and operated Data Center is located in Harrisburg, PA.
As time evolved there were more and more requirements to get deeper into the IT space beyond simply connecting wireless access points and microwave radios. This evolution led to a series of acquisitions as Netrepid found itself becoming more of an IT Services company. In 2009, Netrepid acquired Pennsylvania Online. This provided the start of an established data center, call center, and support teams. Netrepid has added those capabilities with other acquisitions.


Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing exponentially and has been infiltrating the job market with Google for Jobs and in November 2017, LinkedIn and Microsoft announced the creation of Resume Assistant, which will be available in Microsoft Word. Resume Assistant provides intelligent tools (AI) to help job seekers improve their resumes, right from within Word by integrating public profiles of active LinkedIn members while working on your resume. Resume Assistant's purpose is to provide real examples of how other professionals with the same title describe their work experience, skills, and accomplishments.
This feature will display examples of your peer's (people that match your job title) work experiences that they list. You can filter the examples by job titles and industries to get a holistic understanding and spot trends that are common among the listed profiles. For example, if you are a "Brand Manager," you will be able to immediately see real examples of other "Brand Managers" that can help you craft your resume such as including how many clients you work with and what types of accomplishments you should list. Additionally, you can view more examples by clicking on a link that will take you directly to your peer's public LinkedIn profiles with the same job title, which will help you develop insights on how people are designing their profiles and what you should also incorporate.
Another feature available will allow you to view the top skills listed for people with your same job title. This will display exactly what relevant skills people highlight and let you know what you should be listing on your resume and LinkedIn as well. There will also be articles published by LinkedIn that will help you write your resume in addition to suggesting jobs that are available for your role in your locale. This feature will not only afford you the opportunity to look for jobs but also see relevant information that employers are looking for. Finally, there will be a feature that lets recruiters know that you are "open to new opportunities" and allows you to find your next job on LinkedIn.
Integrating this type of AI in the recruiting process will help make it easier for employers to find qualified candidates and assist you in writing a compelling resume. The Resume Assistant feature will be available in Office 365 under the "Review" tab, where on the far-right side of the options will be an icon for "Resume Assistant." This feature is currently being rolled-out and should be available to regular Office 365 subscribers in early 2018.

This is a chapter from the pioneering book: The Alternative Twelve Steps: A Secular Guide to Recovery. It was originally written by two women, Martha Cleveland and Arlys G., and published in 1991. As valuable today as it was then, a second edition of this exceptional work was published by AA Agnostica.
Work honestly, humbly and courageously to develop our assets and to release our personal shortcomings.
We can't be a changed person unless we are willing to make changes. Step 7 actually involves us in personal change. As we use this Step, we go further than becoming willing to risk change. We do risk and we do change. We risk, we try, we fail, we start again. We act and our actions change our lives. In Steps 4 and 5 we discover our assets and our shortcomings. In Step 6 we become psychologically prepared to deal with these qualities. Step 7 finds us ready to act.
When we become entirely ready to make changes, our abiding strength is stronger than our shortcomings. And humility is a crucial part of this spiritual readiness. We know we have learning to do and we undertake our lessons with humility and self-reverence. We measure our progress in relation to who we have been, instead of measuring ourselves against other people. We are taking our own journey. We acknowledge our strength and use it with humility, looking only for an honest way of living in an honest reality.
All of us can identify an action as work when it's deliberate or physically strenuous. Splitting wood is work. So is consciously gathering our courage to say no to the request of a friend when our guilts insist that we say yes. It may be harder to realize that we are doing important work when we let down old barriers and open our minds to new ways of thinking. It's work to allow ourselves to fail. It's work to stand up for ourselves. It's work to be patient. It's work to put up with the emotional discomfort of new ways. We can't judge something as work by whether it feels like work. We can't judge it by whether it results in the outcome we hope for. To work simply means to use our energy to be disciplined and committed in pursuit of our goal.
We begin to change by actively letting go of our shortcomings, our actions and feelings that are liabilities. We cut our losses and start again. We begin by discarding old patterns of acting and old ways of thinking. We let go with slow, cautious and reluctant moves. No one lets go of shortcomings all at once. They disappear as we become aware of them, one at a time, over a period of years.
Our new rule becomes, "If it feels familiar, watch out. I'd better stop and look at this." When a friend hurts us, we stop before we try to comfort her and relieve her guilt. When our mother complains she hasn't heard from us for a week, we stop before we make a million excuses and try to make it right with her. When our wife is inconsiderate, we stop before we flare up and deliver the usual lecture. Whenever a reaction feels involuntary, it may be something that needs changing.
Change requires thought and planning. It also requires effort and action. Sometimes we work at changing a thought and then a changed behavior follows. Sometimes a thought just won't change, so we risk a new behavior anyway. Often, after we've used our new behavior long enough, changed thought will follow. We reinforce our new ways with practice, but mastery takes more than doing something over and over. It takes a high level of interest; it takes desire, thoughtfulness, commitment and constant vigilance. Step 7 requires us to be honest, courageous, humble and willing to do what it takes, even if it hurts.
Some of our shortcomings will stick with us despite our best efforts. Each of us is born with a genetic temperament. We can modify these traits but we can't lose them. Some of us have quick tempers. It takes others a long time to get angry. Some of us are inherently loners, while others would rather be in a crowd. Some of us are natural fighters, some natural lovers – it's just the way our genes work. Learning a healthy respect for the power of these traits is important, because then when they appear, we can collaborate with them instead of letting them take control.
As we let go of our shortcomings, we discover that we do not collapse. We expand. We are not left defenseless against life. Instead, we become less fragile, less explosive and less rigid. We gain breathing room. A wise person said, 'Departure is the mother of hope." As we depart from our old ways, we have hope for a happier way to live.
Assets don't make us powerful over other people. Their only purpose is to empower us. We develop them by drawing on our inner strength. Assets are the things about us that make life richer, fuller and happier – things that give us a sense of well-being. They can be physical, mental or emotional qualities.
A high level of confidence is an asset. So is a special aptitude or talent. Attitudes and ideas can be assets, as are positive ways of behaving or an innate ability to get along with other people. Sensitivity to others is an asset, and so is an instinctive sense of self-survival. Assets can be deliberately learned or part of how nature made us. They may be hidden or obvious to everyone. Whatever form they take, each of us has a huge stock of them just waiting to be put into use.
We learn about real choice as we work Step 7. We finally comprehend that we have actual choices about how we act and think and feel. It's exciting to know we don't have to be the way we don't want to be. We develop our ability to see choice and to exercise choice. We can actually change who we are by developing our assets, making new choices, and following through with action.
Change is risky. The 12-Step program doesn't guarantee specific outcomes to the changes we make. Some outcomes produce new problems. Self-respect and more independent behavior may make a spouse angry. When we stop trying to run our daughter's life, she may go wild for a while. When we refuse a friend's invitation to lunch, she may not call again. When we stop drinking in a favorite bar, we may spend many evenings alone. We always risk when we make changes, but with the tools we learn in the 12-Step program we can keep our perspective and deal with whatever happens.
Change is tricky. Step 7 has a predictable pitfall. At one time or another, every single one of us will think we are letting go of a particular shortcoming when in fact we are expressing it in a different guise. For instance, switching from beastly outbursts of rage to rageful, covert manipulation is not recovery. It isn't healthy just because we smile instead of scream. We must always stay aware of the power of our shortcomings to snag us. We are so practiced at self-deception that it sometimes takes even more pain before we understand our own games.
Change is slow. Deep and lasting change comes slowly, much more slowly than our impatient selves would like. Sometimes we have bursts of insight and rapid growth. We move along easily and are excited with our progress. We'd better enjoy these periods, because they certainly won't last. Most change is a matter of everyday practice, everyday recommitment day by day, thought by thought, action by action. We will probably spend the rest of our lives increasing our excellence in developing our assets and releasing our personal shortcomings. It's a grand way to live.
Working the Seventh Step is like being in training. It lays out a lifestyle training regimen that builds inner spiritual strength and endurance. We make changes in the care of our body, the activity of our minds and the acceptance and expression of our emotions. We gradually bring the different parts of ourselves into a healthy balance as we practice new living skills.
In some cases our shortcomings will fade away as we practice. In others we need to make a conscious, deliberate effort to stop an old behavior and substitute another. The simple words "Stop," "Think" and "Start" can save us a lot of misery. When a feeling or an action feels automatic, we Stop. Then we Think, which allows us to pull back and realistically look at the situation. Then exercising deliberate choice, we can either continue with what feels familiar or Start something else.
A common example is chronic worrying. Something happens and we start to worry about it. We worry and worry, even though we know we should be thinking about other things. So we Stop. Really Stop.
We make a conscious effort to step back, take time and Think about the situation. What good is the worrying doing? Is it going to make a difference in the outcome? Is it helpful to ourselves or someone else? Does it fulfill an emotional need? Then we Think about the answers to these questions and choose to either continue worrying or to Start doing something more interesting and productive. This sounds like a simple exercise. It's really very complex, but with practice it works.
There are lots of methods to help us learn new ways and practice them. Mental rehearsal or visualizing how we want to behave is one of the most powerful tools. Listening to people in a 12-Step group provides good ideas on handling similar situations in our own lives. Going to workshops and classes provides information that helps develop skills and assets. Reading can stimulate us and provide inspiration for change.
These are only a few of the ways that can be helpful – there are many others. By being open to trying new things, by purposefully experimenting, any of us can find methods that both work and fit our particular personality.
Sometimes all of a sudden, after many tries, something we are working on clicks and we reach our goal. And sometimes we miss it by a wide margin. It's okay to fail because we learn from our mistakes as well as from our successes. And even though we miss our goal we're still on track, because we're moving in the right direction.
Effort alone is progress, and we value our progress more than we value the perfection of the outcome. We learn not to judge our efforts in the short term because deep and lasting change for the long term takes a long time.
Little by little, step by step, stage by stage, we will reach a goal. And when we look back, we can't really explain how we got there. So much depends on our willingness to "become entirely ready" and to work hard. So much depends on our willingness to be open to the spiritual energy that strengthens us. But for each of us it will happen, and we are grateful and we move forward.
Today I will act on a plan to develop an asset and release one liability.
I will remember that I can freely change my plan as I move through my day.

When those I sponsor reach step 7; I explain that, like step 3, a decision (or declaration) is being made. The process of changing behaviors is actually monitored and sustained by frequent self-examination as outlined in step 10. The humility principle here is expressed whenever I choose "character over comfort" and base by life on my true core values. If I no longer "value", for example, avoiding confrontation, then by necessity I begin to take the risk of asserting myself. The idea here is that my focus is not on what maladjustments I'm giving up, but on what assets (which I claim to value)I seek to acquire. Step 7 is remarkably effective for we "frustrated idealists." It is enormously empowering for an alcoholic to embrace his or her moral compass and letting that be the ultimate guide through life. Step 7 is the starting point.
I've been in the traditional rooms for many years, and have had a long impasse about how step 7 works for me. I've shared and shared and have not found others relate to the struggle. I'm not struggling anymore thanks to this chapter and other related websites. I have validation that there is no superpower "out there" that magically makes defects disappear. It's just work that, once we become aware, we can change. Pretty simple really. Or if we can't change, we stop hurting ourselves and others. Buddhism says our only true possessions are our actions, the ground on which we stand. Whatever has resulted in my life is from my actions. Nonaction is an action too.
I think there is a value in "letting go," even though there be no "letting God." We heathens are prone to throwing out the baby with the bathwater. I have benefitted from a modified version of the 12 step process.
Another fine resource for finding a secular path through the steps is Gabriel Segal's book, "Twelve Steps to Psychological Good Health," reviewed on this website. A very smart guy who shone at Oxford and MIT.
It is no wonder that for years I have heard people at meetings struggle with this step, or ignore it completely. Even to a lot of relatively religious folk, getting humble, getting more god, and magically having the obcession removed is a lot of smoke and mirrors. It really leaves us with nothing to do, except get on with steps 8 and 9. I know I never had a clue what it was all about until I got into the agnostic AA world.
Yet as Martha and Arlys interpret it, this step is at the heart of the change we make in transforming from a drunken mind to a healthy one. It is the shop in which we work on reducing our recovery liabilities and strengthening our recovery assets.
The BB and the 12&12 don't even mention that we might have some good in us, or anything like assets we can use to help recovery. How biblical is that?
For me humility does play a role, but not in the context of some original sin scenario. I don't believe that in my 20's, as a pre-alcoholic, I was a below average egotistical creep with all sorts of significant mental problems. But after 40-odd years of boozing, that would be a pretty good description. So was I going bad somehow and covering it with the booze, or did the booze do it to me because I have the alcoholic gene? It just dosen't matter. If I now want to be sober and become a better person to myself and society, I have to change, to undo what I became as best I can. It does take humility to recognize what I had became, and to start the work to fix it. So humility, yes, but not "mea culpa, I'm so horrible".
I don't take this chapter as the perfect solution to the change I want to achieve, but for me it sure is in the right direction.
Actually in step 10 in the 12×12 it talks of crediting ourselves with things well done. An alcoholic like me will always look for the good in myself, and dismiss the negative. I think the early members were telling us our assets never got us drunk, it was our lilabilities.
Yes, I agree … in step 10. And it is hinted at here and there, but not in 7. I went back to read Step 7 in the 12 & 12 after reading the chapter above; it is really one of the more God-centered Steps in that book.
I can't tell you how many times I've heard that "your defects got you drunk" bit. I almost believed it for a time. And once I was well and truely a drunk, oh my how the defects multiplied. But I really think it was mostly genetic, for me, anyway the way it played out.
And yes, we all are works in progress, aren't we!
I think the early members were telling us our assets never got us drunk, it was our liabilities.
It's not just our early members; I've heard this exact statement a number of times in the rooms.
The challenge of adequately secularizing the Steps is to dig down deeply enough to find what of any real value is actually there. It is not enough to excise the god language and regurgitate recovery platitudes extolling "spiritual" values like humility and leaving intact assumptions about tired concepts like shortcomings.
Step 7 is obviously one of the most problematic steps for atheists and agnostics, but the problem goes deeper than that it requires praying. Take God out of it and you still have something that feels an awful lot like the Christian understanding of sin.
As an atheist, my understanding of the seventh step requires at least as great a leap of faith as what is involved in praying for the removal of shortcomings. I have to let go of the security and comfort that my way of thinking and my cherished old identity still provides me in order to make room for a better way of thinking and a better way of existing — knowing that the in the interim, while I await the emergence of greater health, I just might be unbearably uncomfortable and insecure.


Staging the world's biggest sporting event requires close collaboration between the International Olympic Committee (IOC), the Organising Committee (OCOG), the athletes, the National Olympic Committees (NOC), and the International Federations (IFs). At Games time, this coordination happens in a daily meeting, which brings together all of the key players in the event including, the IOC President and Vice-Presidents, the Chairman of the IOC's Coordination Commission, Vancouver 2010's senior leadership in this case, the head of the IOC's Athletes Commission, and representatives of the NOCs, winter IFs, and IOC Members' observer programme, as well as senior IOC management.
The IOC – Vancouver 2010 joint meeting has so far taken place twice since the day of the Opening Ceremony and operations are proceeding on track with only some common teething problems for the start of a Games that need to be addressed. Today, the IOC President complimented the Vancouver organisers on the quality of the sports competitions that had taken place yesterday and on the Opening Ceremony show. In a sign of confidence in the organisers, the next meeting will not take place until Tuesday.
During the seven years of preparations for the Games, the IOC's Coordination Commission assists and monitors the progress of the OCOG. The Commission visits the host city once a year until four years from the Games, when the visits become twice yearly until the Games are held. The Commission's full meetings are supplemented by the regular visits of smaller IOC teams involving the Commission Chairman, selected members of the Commission and members of the IOC administration.


Google+ allows brands (marketeers) to email their followers on their social network. This is something that Facebook has never allowed, and it represents a whole new dimension for marketers to explore and or explode their "plussers".
We've always called Google + the "sleeping giant" here at Whale Agency, and we are more than ecstatic to notice that their social network strategy is changing in 2014. The statements that are shown below make us feel confident about Google+ , their possibilities as a leading social network and their choices to connect with customers.
This improves the overall user experience. Google understood that people do want to read promotional messages, but they don't want to be interrupted when they want to access their inbox – especially at work or in school.
It also allowed content creators (brands or others) to interact with real people. People that couldn't hide behind the mask of anonymity.
Google allows brands to email followers on Google+.
The email would probably be in their promotional or social folder, but open rates are going to go through the roof with this new integration. We're probably going to go from 0.05% to 3-5% on emails from Google+ communities.
Some people aren't allowed to access Facebook and Twitter from work. It's banned at a browser level. However, Google+ is not. Hence, a lot of people use Google+ from work, when they can't access FB and TW on their computers. You've got their undivided attention for 8 potential hours; use this time to give them engaging content and meaningful discussions.
What do you guys think? Is Google+ going to be part of your Social Media strategy this year?

Thank God for Atlus. if it weren't for them, we may never have seen Ogre Battle in any form on our fair shores. Now, with OB 64, N64 owners finally have a real strategy-RPG of their own (and it only took four years!). The makers of this deep, deep game went on to create such classics as Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, and now, Vagrant Story. What more do you need? Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber hits shelves this fall.
Download Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber
Too long we've waited for a true strategy RPG on the N64. Atlus has finally stepped up to the plate and localized Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber. Bringing this game to the U.S. was a no-brainer according to Gail Salamanca, product specialist at Atlus, "The only strategy/RPG on the N64...one of the biggest names in RPGs...yes, must do Ogre Battle 64."
Like the original, OB64's melees are played out automatically, although you can intervene and change which targets your troops focus on midbattle. It's not very fast-paced, because the point of this game is to deploy your troops across the terrain and then methodically outmaneuver and destroy your enemy. You've got to keep your men equipped and well rested for them to be effective in battle.
As Ogre Battle 64 begins, you play a new recruit thrust into the role of a commander in the government army as rebel forces are gathering to attempt to overthrow the monarchy. Predictably, our hero soon begins to question the royal family's motives, and general confusion ensues. While it may not be an original story, it doesn't diminsh the premise of this game.
For those of you who may have been overwhelmed with the complicated navigation and battle system in Ogre Battle on the SNES and PS, Ogre Battle 64 contains a full tutorial. Trust us, it helps. After playing through it, even Greg had a good idea of what to do in each part of the game. That in itself speaks volumes!
Currently the translation is looking pretty smooth and should satisfy discerning RPG fans once Atlus finishes polishing up the text. They aren't dumbing down the game for the coveted "E" rating either--the complicated plot and presence of a few choice expletives make that very clear.
It's only natural to be skeptical of the game's length and music, since it is on cartridge. Let's clear that up right now: OB64 will contain 40-plus hours of gameplay with a branching story line, and the music is on par with most SNES RPG fare. If any of you remember how good those games sounded, you should be very happy right now.
Nintendo 64-owning RPG fans finally have reason to celebrate. Atlus, publishers of the original Ogre Battle and its sequel, Tactics Ogre, have announced plans to localize and publish the third installment of the series, Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber, on the N64 this summer.
Despite its ridiculous title, OB64 actually looks extremely promising. The mammoth 320-Meg cart received rave reviews in Japan, and packs some of the best, most crisp visuals and sounds the N64 has seen to date. The game looks and plays similar to the original Ogre Battle (released on both the SNES and PlayStation here), with over 40 different scenarios, a ton of character classes and that dreaded Reputation meter.
We'll be back with a proper preview, but in the meantime, check out these screenshots courtesy of Atlus. The folks at Quest have created some of the best strategy games of all time, so if you're a fan of the genre, you'll definitely want to keep an eye on this one. It's going to be hot.
Orge Update
Ogre Battle certainly seems to be shaping up nicely, with a huge amount of variety in the game-playing details. For instance, attacks must be planned to take character alignment (position relative to the enemy) and element type (fire, earth, water and wind) into consideration for maximum effect. Terrain type affects movement and falls into three categories: grassy, class has a distinct, and appropriate, set of attacks (Dragon or Magician-types, for example, can't use items, so they conjure up attacks by summoning their dragons).
Character status after an attack is also indicated visually, rather than using a if poisoned, your chap will reel with purple blotches above his head, (purple seems to be the official colour of poison in Japan), or appear consumed in lightning when totally incapacitated.

What the Fuck Was the President Talking About?
President Donald Trump suggested some potentially dangerous coronavirus treatments at a press conference Thursday, including injecting disinfectants and using UV rays to kill the virus.
On Thursday, President Donald Trump floated the potentially dangerous idea of injecting disinfectant or "a very powerful light" into coronavirus patients as a treatment because these daily coronavirus briefings have apparently devolved into the president's personal freeform brainstorming hour.
If that suggestion sounds likes utter crap, that's because it is. Even federal coronavirus response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx appeared baffled by the president's remarks from her seat just offstage, as the folks on Twitter were quick to point out.
Trump made the suggestion after Bill Bryan, head of the Department of Homeland Security's science and technology division, presented preliminary findings from his team's research showing that the virus doesn't last as long in respiratory droplets when exposed to sunlight, warmer temperatures, and high humidity. Household disinfectants were also found to be highly effective at killing the virus in these droplets, he continued; bleach kills it in five minutes and isopropyl alcohol gets the job done in 30 seconds.
Top Vaccine Official Says He Was Demoted for Pushing for More Science on Hydroxychloroquine
Rick Bright, who was reassigned from his job as the federal government's top vaccine expert this…
Bryan went on to advise how this new research could help authorities better curb the virus's transmission, such as by using heat and humidity to disinfect contaminated areas and increasing health precautions in regions where environmental factors might help the virus survive longer on surfaces. And while he made no mention of effects on potential treatments, Trump came away with a very different understanding:
"So supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it's ultraviolet or just a very powerful light — and I think you said that hasn't been checked but you're going to test it," Trump said to Bryan during Thursday's briefing. "And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way, and I think you said you're going to test that, too. Sounds interesting."
By why stop there: "I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning? As you see, it gets in the lungs, it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that."
Say what now?
While it's not the first unproven coronavirus treatment the president has suggested, it's easily the most bizarre. And it goes without saying, but the disinfectants Trump listed are toxic so don't try to treat the virus by shooting up rubbing alcohol (cooking yourself under the sun isn't advisable either). Medical professionals were quick to castigate the president for broadcasting his definitively not medical opinion.
"This notion of injecting or ingesting any type of cleansing product into the body is irresponsible and it's dangerous," pulmonologist and NBC News contributor Dr. Vin Gupta told the network. "It's a common method that people utilize when they want to kill themselves."
Former vice president and 2020 presidential hopeful Joe Biden similarly chastised Trump, tweeting on Thursday that the president should focus on answering the demand for desperately needed medical supplies and coronavirus tests instead.
Trump later walked back his comments when Bryan clarified that federal laboratories aren't considering . . . whatever the hell the president was talking about. Mainlining bleach to kill the virus? Besting this epidemic by turning us all into Dr. Manhattans?
"Maybe it works. Maybe it doesn't work ... I'm not a doctor. I'm, like, a person who has a good you-know-what," Trump said, motioning to his head. He also later turned to Birx and asked whether she'd "ever heard" of heat and light being used to cure a virus. "Not as a treatment," she responded.

Microsoft is currently pushing out a new update for its Photos app both for Windows 10 PC and Mobile. The update is being rolled out to Insiders and Non Insiders on their PCs and Mobile.
The latest update for the Windows 10 Photos app lets users to automatically organize photos based on their faces and more. You will now be able to tag people after the latest update to the Windows 10 Photos application.
Tagging people by their name manually is the new option which will be available after the latest Photos app update. To tag you would need to go to the "People" tab of the application. You will be seeing Start tagging button once you click on the People tab of the Photos application.
After clicking on the start tagging option, you will be able to add a name for that person near the top of the windows and will also allow you to choose a person from your address book or a new contact name.
The feature is a minor addition to the Windows 10 Photos app and is rolling out to all Insiders and Non Insiders with new version 2018.18022.15810.0. If you are not seeing this update then you would need to wait for some days to be able to receive the update.
It could also be that Microsoft could be doing an A/B testing with some of the Insiders if you are not seeing this update, and hence we hope this update should take some time to hit all Windows 10 devices or could be made available via a server update.
Do let us know if you have received the latest Windows 10 Photos update with the new tagging feature in the comments below.

Companies feel the impact of the economic recession the most recently. Almost half of them expect the crisis to end within a year, the second half expect it to last another year, but not as long as two years. For more than one-fifth of those surveyed, the crisis has been a reason to expand the scope of their business. This comes out of a Vodafone Zoom survey about the economic recession that the agency Data Collect conducted for Vodafone among 300 respondents. 87% of companies have implemented austerity measures in the last year.

87% of companies have implemented austerity measures in the last year. They began mostly by saving expenses associated with their office operations (37 %), restricting their benefit policies (28 %) or lowering the costs of telecommunications services (28 %).
Only a small number of companies surveyed have changed their mobile operator within the last 12 months. For the majority, the reason for the switch was due to a better offer from the competition. Those who stayed with their operator don't plan to switch within the next six months.
The economic crisis is felt most by companies with less than ten employees, who had to reduce their expenses and haven't successfully managed to sell their products and services. Although the majority of companies see the current crisis as a menace, one-third of those surveyed see it as an opportunity.
